Calcium chlroide when dissolved in water dissociates into its ions according to the following equations.
`CaCl_(2)(aq) to Ca^(2+)(aq) + 2Cl^(-1) (aq)`
Calculate the number of ions obtained from `CaCl_(2)` when 222g of it is dissolved in water.

Explanation

To solve the problem of calculating the number of ions obtained from 222 g of calcium chloride (CaCl₂) when dissolved in water, we can follow these steps:

### Step 1: Calculate the Molar Mass of Calcium Chloride (CaCl₂)
To find the molar mass, we need to add the atomic masses of calcium and chlorine:
- Atomic mass of Calcium (Ca) = 40 g/mol
- Atomic mass of Chlorine (Cl) = 35.5 g/mol

Since there are 2 chlorine atoms in CaCl₂, the calculation is as follows:
...
